Preface This is the new and greatly improved edition of Essential Urology . I consider myself very fortunate to have been given the opportunity to make improve- ments on what has already been one of the most successful books in the urol- ogy series. As before, this textbook covers all aspects of urological health and disease as it presents in patients during various life stages. It serves as a primer for general urologists, primary care physicians, obstetricians and gynecologists, pediatricians, and allied health-care providers. Life stages addressed include childhood, young adulthood, sexual functioning, fertility, pregnancy, and urological conditions occurring in adulthood or those associated with aging. Chapters are dedicated to conditions speci fi c to gender, age, or setting. For example, urinary tract infections are addressed in separate chapters as UTI pertains to speci fi c patient populations: UTI in children, prostatitis in men, UTI in setting of nephrolithiasis and during pregnancy, and fi nally UTI asso- ciated with neurogenic bladder, catheterization, and sexually transmitted infections. Signi fi cant improvements made to this edition include many exciting new revisions and updates, as well as the addition of four new chapters: one focus- ing on dermatological conditions affecting the genitourinary region, another pertaining to male infertility, another comprising an overview of alternative and complementary medicine, and fi nally a comprehensive review of male and female sexual functioning. As a board certi fi ed family physician who has dedicated nearly 20 years to an exclusive urological practice, I am honored by the collaboration of so many experts, my friends and colleagues, who have made this textbook pos- sible. But I am likewise privileged to share this resource with the medical community. vii Contents 1 Pediatric Potpourri ....................................................................... 1 Jonathan H.
